Ghosts who died via fire can start fires on their home lots while angry:  I would like this ability enabled for non-ghost sims and, if possible, enabled on all lots. I'm not a modder so I have no idea if this is possible, but I'm assuming since the ability is already in the game, there must be a file in there somewhere that can be manipulated. Thanks in advance to anybody who decides to work on this, warrenzevon |

I think I can remove the requirement of being a ghost. Is that what you want or do you want a Pyromaniac trait? I'm new to modding but I can try if you are a little more specific.

That would be great! All I'm looking for is the removal of the ghost requirement, but if you want to do anything extra like a Pyromaniac trait, I'd be all for it. |

I removed the requirement but during testing I found that if the Sim you start a fire with is not a ghost, he will instantly catch on fire. Is that okay?

That sounds good to me. Any work at all done on this is very much appreciated, because I've been looking for months and am clueless when it comes to making something like this myself. I'd be happy to try out whatever you can make.

Currently testing to see if I can tie it to a trait.

Okay I made a mod for you. I gotta say it was very hilarious to see all the sims freak out whenever I made a fire. Never gets old Here's a quick list of changes: Created a Pyromaniac trait that can create fires on the ground Pyromaniac is also immune to fire, and doesn't panic or get singed (After creating a fire just walk out of it, can be a bit buggy) Pyromaniacs fun degrades quicker, they are crazy and need entertainment Pyromaniac gain mischief faster Removed mood restriction on creating fires (you no longer have to be angry) Removed Lot restriction (now works on all residential(?) lots) Removed ghost icon (because it's no longer restricted to ghosts) You can get it here I hope it works for you. I kinda wanna add some positive buffs for causing a fire and stuff but I really don't know how to yet. Still learning. I wasn't able to remove the Tense buff after a fire is put out by another Sim so I just changed the text of the buff so that it also conveys how a pyromaniac can feel after somebody ruins their hard work. |

I can't thank you enough for your great work! I've been testing it out and it works like a charm... it's everything I was hoping for and more when I made this request back in May.
I just made myself a new challenge where my main sim was in a psychiatric hospital and started a fire as a diversion to escape. Now he's changed his appearance and I dropped his funds down to 0 simoleons. He has to avoid anybody from the hospital or else he gets caught, and the only way to get a home is to befriend somebody enough to ask to move in. From there, he can either reform and try to be a productive member of society, or he can use his pyromaniac skills to kill them off and keep the money for himself.
Again, thank you so much. You've really provided me with a great tool for creating stories.

Sounds fun! I got to admit I really enjoyed watching them all panic... Might actually use this mod myself xD

Thanks alexsterk for making this and @warrenzavon for thinking of it and requesting. I was wondering if it was posted elsewhere. It would be a shame if others were unable to find it buried here in the future. |

Great minds Merry927, I had thought this too. Alexsterk, I hope you'll feel welcome to open a Creator Studio and share the mod there  |
